The 'Arthotel Devil Court' is by far the most "limited addition" accommodation in town. The concept is as follows; cabaret, gourmet cuisine, café, bar and wine shop all rolled in one. All nine rooms have been individually created by artists and are redesigned every few years; the present decor is dedicated to the concept of time. In one room, the ceiling is hung with empty newspaper holders! The whole complex of buildings forms one complete showcase for artists' work.

The dynamic Swissôtel was built in 1984. Despite the modern structure inside, the outside remains as fresh and impressive as it was on its initial opening. The roomy lobby harks back to the turn of last century in its use of space, and the piano, combined with palm like greenery, only serves to reinforce this image. The hotel's 238 rooms offer a similarly spacious feel and with their many corners appear a little playful in their design. Many other hotels fit rooms with any old desk; at the Swissôtel Le Plaza they are grand and elegant. Curvy lamps, tasteful sofas and enormous televisions combine to create a perfectly harmonized environment.
